....I asked John for his resignation, which was given to me this morning. I thank John very much for his service. I will be naming a new National Security Advisor next week.

Bolton offered a different account of his resignation.
Bolton's resignation follows reports of conflict in the White House between Bolton and other members of the administration over foreign policy, most notably Secretary of State Mike Pompeo. This week, the New York Times reported that Bolton fiercely objected to a planned meeting at Camp David with members of the Taliban for Afghanistan peace talks.
The president said he will name a new national security adviser next week.
